TESTIMONIALS
There are many testimonies from various people of different walks of life. We have selected only a few, and in some cases kept their identity confidential. Here are some addressed to Dr. Rakesh Kumar, who gave them the right direction to their lives.
“What a wonderful joy to have listened to your discourse on Human Mind and Human Relationships, this Saturday, at the Ishwar Center. I remembered when we first met five years ago; you stated that one day you would have a place for people to come and do their spiritual practice.
Congratulations! On creating such a beautiful, energy full and divine place. I was delighted to attend.
I will always be grateful to you for your teachings you gave me through the years since we first met. What clarity you gave for my first session. What Divine Grace to have received! You gave me hope, understanding and faith to continue with all the force needed to learn, developed, unravel the ego, and unleash my inner consciousness to the highest level. It all began with going to see Sai Baba. What a Divine experience!
Now, five years later, although I may still slip and slide, I will not stop until I am FIRMLY seated in the Divine seat of the GOD SELF (Self-Realization). Peace & Blessing, thank you my friend, my spiritual brother.”

“Yesterday I had a dream. The dream was very intense… I saw you in my dream, and you told me something about a message that I have to give to the other people, through music. Your VOICE went deep into my head and filled up my mind and soul. But it was not a regular Voice. It was like a Message in a Musical Divine Voice. It was so Natural, Real and Strong that I woke up in a second… The feeling was so strong and beautiful, that I never in my life had such a feeling. All this happened in 10 minutes, from the time I laid in bed to the time I woke up… It was different than any regular dream. It was something totally different!
I am very thankful to you for this amazing feeling that I get from your person.”

“Although I have not visited your ISHWAR center, I have had the good fortune of knowing you and the immense benefits of such a great contact. Your advice and your spiritual healing have helped me immensely, and I am eternally grateful to you for that.
As you know my life was in turmoil for a long time and it is thanks to the path you have shown me and the prayers you have suggested, that things have slowly begun to improve.
My life would be fully enriched if I were able to visit your center but as you know, I live many continents away, in Australia, so a bit hard to get there.
I pray that your center and temple flourish, so that all may benefit from it.”
Gina - Australia
“Your knowledge is totally amazing. The story is wonderful. What I liked the most was the full form of “WATCH” and definition of Satsang.
I just can't express in words how joyful/happy/excited I felt when I read the definition of life and WATCH. It just changes the outlook of life. Thank you so much for this knowledge.”

“Another year has come and gone and so much has happened in the short time I have gotten to know you.
I have been thinking all weekend about how grateful I am for having met you. I was going to call to thank you, but I know I will forget all the things I want to say. So I decided it would be best to e-mail you to say thank you, thank you, and thank you for all the help, support and advice you have given me in the past two years. You have been a great source of support, and strength for me when I needed it the most. You have given me so much hope, and while I have always had my faith, you have been an extension of my faith. I know I can really never repay you for what you have done for me…
I hope you will always be there not just for me but for so many other people's lives you have made a difference in. I know I feel you have been a guiding light for me, and I am sure many others feel the same way. Once again, thank you for everything, and may God bless you always.”
Raquel – New York
“Since I started ISHWAR visitations I am happy to say that my overall health and moral well being have improved immensely. The techniques and teachings that I was exposed to have helped me to become more focused and given me the ability to cope with the vagaries of life.”
Ronald – New York
“You have initiated a drastic change on my evolutionary path, I've been experiencing everything at once, unconditional love and anger, light and suffering...but now I know it's only because there are some alterations happening.
I'm very grateful for your presence, much appreciated. Thank you for the Divine Discourse...
Also, I want to thank you for Your Help & Energy. Since our meeting on Friday, something is happening, I feel different, free and so balanced....I feel electricity & different vibrations around the body but mainly head and forehead. It's something impossible to describe....I'm extremely grateful for this state… I once again thank you for your spiritual guidance and help. I would like to attend the weekly meetings regularly.”
Anna – New York
“It was great to meet the man who changed my life and sit down and talk with you in person. I thank God every day for sending me to you or you to me. I have finally relaxed about my future, though it took a while to change my worrying habits. I happened upon a book, but I couldn't grasp it then; "The Power of Intention" by Dr Wayne Dyer. It reminds me a lot of some of the things you say aout the power of the mind and a spiritual plan for all of us. I would still like for you to find me some good meditation music, and books on Yoga meditation and exercise, and proper vegetarian nutrition. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.”
John P – Texas
“I had the privilege of visiting your website and was thankful to God that people like you are there doing so much of good work for humanity.
People like us look to messengers of God like you in our times of Crisis when we feel lost and seek direction. You have the power to provide guidance and the right path. Thank you and God Bless.”
Vimal Agarwal – New Delhi
“I would like to take this opportunity to say that you have helped and guided me and other member's, and friends of my family. Your support and vision have enabled us to reflect carefully before making important decisions. Now you have a platform to extend this invaluable Service to many other people who will most certainly benefit from your caring guidance. I pray to "SAI" that in time and years to come your dedication enables the centre to grow and flourish. You believe in yourself... and the Lord is surely guiding you. My Ernest prayers for your invaluable work in your new home USA.”
Mokshpriya – New Delhi.
“Your services have been invaluable to me. When I first came to you in December of 1996, I was emotionally exhausted. You spent an entire Sunday afternoon with me, and gave me hope before I left. Your analysis of my chart was accurate with respect to events occurring as we spoke – for example to do with my father’s health. So much so, that your guidance regarding the future gave me hope and direction. The homeopathic remedies helped as well. Your subsequent guidance continues to help me and my family.
Today, my life is significantly better than when I first saw you. I attribute this to your guidance and prayer.
I recommend your services and would be happy to serve as a reference.”
Armida – New Jersey
“When you assured at our meeting 2 weeks ago that my hiccups would go away in 3 days and I would be fully healed in a week, I was, frankly, deeply skeptical. Yet, since I had faith in alternative medicine, I gave your Ayurvedic treatment my honest and faithful trial with the whole-hearted investment of my emotional and psychic energy.
What happened, however, is beyond words for it is nothing short of a miracle. Within 36 hours, indeed, I began to notice a significant improvement, which continues to this day. Today, I can say I feel cured of the chronic hiccups by 95%.
So, dear Rakeshji, please accept my deepest gratitude for your wonderful healing! I am so impressed I have started recommending you to all my friends!”

“I wanted to thank you once again for your spirited talk at ASP. I think that your word formulas are so no nonsense, witty and profound. I hope you will be including them in your website and outgoing messages, and publications. Continued success on your journey of enlightenment, your support and energy has made a difference to those who attended.”
Georgina Galanis - ASP VP, ASP Network Chair
“Thanks so much for sending these eternal truths. It's always good to be reminded about Karma and Dharma--they apply in the present as much as they did in the past. I appreciate our ongoing connection and look forward in sharing more with you in the future.”
Ira (Psychotherapist) – New York
“Your prediction about my father came true. My father passed away on July 24th 2008. Your prediction helped me to prepare myself to absorb the shock, and helped me deal with many situations in life.”

“It's very heartening to know that "ISHWAR" center and the temple of Sri Satya Sai Baba is established in Queens, New York. Many congratulations and the very best wishes for your endeavor and work. I also pray to BABA to give you success in your future endeavors.”

“I am delighted to learn of the opening of the temple. When I was with you last time, I overheard some conversation on the subject and am happily surprised that within such a short time you have come up with this concrete result. So, congratulations! Doubtless, you have a great future ahead of you.”
Uday C. Naval, PhD. – New York
“Heartiest Congratulations!! Your hard work is finally paying off. I know it will be a GREAT SUCCESS because of your sincere efforts and Baba's blessings. I wish I could be there for the opening. Next time I am in NJ / NY, I will come by the center / Temple for prayers and receive blessings.”
